JUDGE PALMER.
He Will Not Probably be Removed
Immediately.

Special to the Globe
WAsHINGToN, May 13.-There is no
likelihood of the immediate removal of
Judge Palmer, of the Fourth district, to
make room for E. w. Miller. There is
no application on file in the department
of justice for the position. either from
Mr.. Miller or from his friends. 1t is
understood, however, that the removal
has been recently contemplated, in
common with many others which must
be made, inasmuch as the Republican
incumbents seem determined to hold on
until they are taken by the neck and
kicked out. The name of Mr.. Miller
has been mentioned to the president
for the iudgeship by resident friend
of his who has access to the White
house. The president personally knows
Mr.. Miller and remembers his visit to
Washington in December. 1885, with
pleasure. BY the way, Mr.. Cleveland
has the good fortune to remember faces,
localities and conversations with great
vividneSs. He can repeat almost YER
batim what has been said to him by diff
ferent men upon different topics. Hence
he can talk of Dakota and her wants
and needs with great good sense and in
telligent appreciation of her men and
measures. There is but one other man
in this city who knows the empire SO
well. and that is Hon. Van Manning, of
Mississippi. He is the best posted nom
resident of the territory in the entire
country He is friend of Mr.. Miller,
but it was not he who went to the White
house in his behalf

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 13.-There is not
a shadow of truth in the recently tele-
graphed statement that the president is
disposed to interfere with the operation
of the law in behalf of the settlers on the
Crow Creek, Winnebago and Cheyenne
agencies. The matter has never been
considered at a cabinet meeting, and
the president has never spoken to Mr..
Lamar about it. He went over the
whole case very carefully when it was
brought to his attention in May, 1885,
and acted upon his judgment of the mer-
its of the case at that time. The law
is unfortunate, possibly, because of its
misconstructiOn by the late President
Arthur, as explained to him by his sec
rotary of the interior and attorney gen
eral: but it is being enforced as gently
and Justly as possible. The settlers were
wronged by the late administration
when it declared the lands open for set
Element. 1t is natural maybe for the I'M
fortrnates to animadvert against the
present administration. Certainly par
tisan papers will make the most of the
unfortunate occurrence. But the wrong
was perpetrated by the Arthur admins
tration and cannot be remedied by Mr..

THE FARGO ROUNDUP.
Brief Reference to the Events of
the Past Week


Special Correspondence of the Globe
FARGO, May 13.-At the session of the
board of railroad commissioners in this
city Tuesday there was a good deal of
sluirming over the secretaryship mat
ter, which had been left over from the
former meeting on account of the OBJ
stinacy of Maj. Quinn in refusing to re-
move his personal habitation from the
, capital on the Muddy. They wanted
Quinn, with his bright quips and spark
ling hunOr, to enliven their cOnclaveS
and tedious journeyings, and felt that
no other man could make up the quar-
tette so picturesquely, but did not want
to go to him 200 miles each meeting.
He told them frankly that, while he
be glad to act as their secretary and
would draw the generous salary with
alacrity and fidelity and do his best to
entertain them--his system had become
so habituated to the nutritious water
of the Missouri that he could not give
it up even for the more sparkling sub
stitutes furnished by philanthropic rail
roads. Consequently the members took
their grips and at once departed for Bis
marck. incidentally it may be men
toned that Maj. Quinn has sort of lit
erary geyser that is lucrative and can
not be moved from the river.
A citizen of Fargo gives graphic ac-
count of his experience in sand storm
the past week in the sand ridge region
in the adjacent parts of CaSS, Ransom
and Richland counties. The wind was,
for steady pull, about the most violent
that old settlers recall. The sand filled
the air much as travellers describe it OH
the Arabian deserts. The narrator, how
ever, did not lie down and let the sand
cover him, but it was worse than a biz
Zard, and could not be faced. The sand
drifts were like those of snow, but not,
of course, equal in depth. The famous
Helendale stock farm is in the vicinity
of some of these ridges, which are not
very extensive. The farmers there
seem to prefer a mixture of sand with
the rich loan. However, after this

admits that she is extravagantly fond of

THE territorial ''hOsS DOCTOR" ere
alton of the last legislature, does not
find his position sinecure. He is kept
on the road about all the time, chiefly
looking after reported cases of CHAMBERS.
The efficient incumbent is DR.. c. j. AL
LowAY, of Grand Forks, a somewhat
noted fine stock breeder. In an inter-
view this week, he stated that his efforts
were directed mainly to stamping out
the disease known as CHAMBERS. which is
very dangerous disease for both man
and beast. He is surprised to find the
number of cases of it scattered over the
territory. He shows upon his diary, calls
from Deadwood, in the Black Hills, Big
Stone and Milbank in the east, Burleigh
in the northwest, Grafton in the north.
and LennOX in the extreme south. He
traces the disease in many of the cases
to animals brought to Fort Lincoln on
the Missouri river several years ago. 1t
is pronounced incurable and contagious.
Animals taken with it may live a few
days or several years, but they are re-
quired to be killed and burned and the
stables diSinfected. 1t has not been
generally understood to present a very
serious danger to men, but the doctor
says it is as deadly to human beings as
to horses, and loathsome in the extreme.
He cited an instance in central county
where several horses died of CHAMBERS,
and the owner and his son both took it
and are slowly but surely dying. He
hopes by energetic and radical meas
ureS to eXterminate the scourge from
the territory, but the task is not an easy
or brief one.

pers do not care to relieve the situation
of any of its embarrassments by an ex-
hibition of newspaper enterprise. A
few of them, however, are brought ont
by the special interests affected, like the
local option act. The school law is al
most new production, and the super
intendent has sent out in circulars a
synopsis of the changes essential to be
known before the school elections.
These make women over 81 eligible to

that they must have charge of children
of school age, and not having a living
husband. Widows and old maids hay
ing custody of school children can vote,

have husband cannot. This is Il some

If Gov. CHURCH is seeking notoriety
and popularity as the chief aim, he errs
in not following immediate precedents
probably owing to his misfortune in
not having newspaper training. He
should so time his movements as to be
constantly i'll the focus of the pencil
pushers, and have pleasing andamel-
lif1uouS speech for them, and seem to
give them decided pointers, with taffy in
saccharine abundance for the people and
territory. The newspapers claim to
make great share of the statesmen and
men in general view, and there are not
able instances in Dakota that they could
cite with little challenge. 1t is possible
that the governor does not fully recog-
niZe the latent potency in printers ink,
but it would be useless for him to at
tempt to rival the success of trained
adept in developing personal fame and

TIE establishment of the New Eng
land colony in the unbroken wilds,
bordering on the northwest of the vast
hunting and roaming grounds of the
Sioux Indians, is worthy of more than
passing note. There are at present the
heads of some fifty families on the
ground, and nearly every train brings
accessions. 1t will probably grow
rapidly up into the thousands-com-
priSing the best blood and muscle of a
people of historic repute III building up
new countries. They are the pioneers
in Il region which the government sur
vcyors have not yet visited, and which
has not been supposed to be
habitable except by Indians and
cowboys, and only fit for stock
to range over. But these thrifty
alert Yankees are not going there SIM
ply at the dictation of emigration agents
or to oblige a railroad. They have had
their own trusted and capable explorers
who investigated all the sections where
there are large bodies of government
land, and their decision rested upon
this almost UNEMPLOYED Cannon Ball re-
gion, twenty-five to fOrty-tive miles
south of the Northern Pacific railroad
They found there fertile soil, plenty
OF Serviceable coal, good water for every
use, stone quarrieS, lime stone and
building sand, with timber along the
streams. They chose this region in the
face of the drOuth of last year, a winter
unusually destructive to stock, of the
fact that the interstate act deprived
them of the favorable railroad rates they
had expected. 1t is alleged also that
one of the great railroad systems EN-
ployed the columns of New England
papers to diSparage this section, and
alleging that the scheme was devised
by Mr.. Billings, the Vermont
director Of the Northern Pacific.
These people, although of Puritan
lineage, have not sought an inhospitable
land To exercise any religious privileges,
but to subServe their material we'll
being and build up commonwealth as
did the other New England colonistS on
the Western reserve in Ohio. If it
meets their confident expectations, a
region some 200 by 100 miles, will, in an
astonishing short period, be dotted with
school houses, churches, villages and
towns, and railroad will give them con-
nection with the Northern Pacific and
Black Hills. Although they will not be
able to grow much of anything this year,
il the season should be as favorable as it
now promises to be, there will be a
migration that will nearly depopulate
some of the old communities in the
sterile New England states.
